“Each verified civil servant will be eligible to purchase one 50kg bag of rice at a highly subsidized rate of N40, 000,” the ES said.

Goje stated that the intervention aligns with Governor Buni’s early recovery and Post-Conflict Agenda by ensuring fair access to essential commodities.

“In total, 6,000 bags will be distributed at a ratio of 70% (4,200 bags) allocated to State Civil Servants and the Organized Private Sector, and 30% (1,800 bags) will be distributed/sold to Federal MDAs
